    IntroductionThis is the users’ manual for Moore Industries’ SDY PC-Programmable Signal Isolator/Converter. It contains all of the information that is needed to configure, install, operate, maintain, and troubleshoot the SDY. If you require additional assistance, call one of our STAR Centers (for Service, Technical Assistance, and Repair) to talk with a technician or engineer.

    The following guidelines are used in this manual:

    WARNING - Hazardous procedure or condition that could injure the operator.

    Caution - Hazardous procedure or condition that could damage or destroy the unit.

    Note - Information that is helpful for a procedure, condition, or operation of the unit.

    The SDYThe SDY is a versatile, 2-wire (loop-powered), PC-Programmable Signal Isolator/Converter that accepts current or voltage input and provides an isolated, proportional 4-20mA output. See Figure 1 for a list of accommodated input types.

    Typical uses for the SDY include:

    • Isolating Signals to stop erratic process measurements caused by ground loops

    • Converting Signals so field instruments can interface directly with indicators, recorders, DCS’s, PLC’s, and PC-based SCADA systems

    • Diverting Signals so the output from one transmitter can be sent to two separate locations

    • Protecting Equipment and Signals by eliminating common electrical paths

    • Boosting Signals to enable more instruments to be added to an overburdened loop

    • Solving the “Bucking Power Supplies” problem that occurs when a 4-wire transmitter and a DCS both try to power the same process loop

    Figure 1. Compact, yet powerful, the SDY transmitter features programmable inputs and a trimmable output to boost accuracy.

    Installing the Configuration SoftwareRefer to Table 1 for the equipment needed.

    1. Insert the Moore Industries Interface Solution PC Configuration Software CD into the CD drive of the PC. Access the CD and open the SDY SIY TDY TRX TRY 64 bit PC Configuration software folder.

    2. Double-click the installation program located in the folder. Follow the prompts to correctly install the program.

    Once the Configuration Program is installed on the PC, the SDY can be connected to equipment to simulate input and monitor output. You can then change the transmitter’s operating parameter

    CAUTION: Any time a connected SDY is “programmed”

    by downloading a Configuration File into memory, ALL of the configuration parameters resident in the transmitter memory at the time of the

    download are OVERWRITTEN. This includes things like: tag name, calibration date, trim values,

    etc.

    ConfigurationConfiguring the SDY consists of:

    1. Checking to verify that the unit ordered is in fact the one received and that it has been correctly calibrated by the factory according to the order.

    2. Installing the SDY Configuration Software by following the directions on the label.

    3. Connecting the SDY to a PC and test setup, running the SDY PC Configuration Program to check for correct unit tagging, input type and range settings, and output zero/span trim.

    Prior to shipment, our team of skilled technicians subjects every SDY to rigorous testing. Every product Moore Industries manufactures, sells, and services is guaranteed to meet the strict quality standards that our company demands.

    Even if a unit has been configured to your specifications by the factory (factory calibration), it is a good idea to perform a bench check. In addition to providing a safe means of uncovering any unit damage that may have occurred during shipping, the procedures afford the user the opportunity of becoming familiar with SDY operation in a testing environment that is separate from the intended process or application.

    Note: The procedures in this section should be carried out in an environment considered appropriate for the general testing of electronic equipment, rather

    than in the field. Use a technician’s bench or similar, lab-type environment.

    It is possible to run the SDY Configuration program without actually connecting a unit to the PC, but you will be unable to set a custom linearization table. This makes it easy to devise and download a single configuration to several SDY. To do this, save the Configuration File to disk, connect the units in succession, and download the same file to each.

    Figure 3. Setting SDY Parameters Using the Configuration Screen

    Using the SDY PC Configuration Program Once the software has been installed on your hard disk:

    1. Run the PC Configuration Program.

    2. Set the values as appropriate for your SDY application in the various fields of the Configuration Screen shown in Figure 3.

    Note: If you are building a Configuration File

    without a SDY connected, the “SDY Status” section of the screen will be blank, and the “Communication” indicator will show steady

    ON (as opposed to blinking).

    During setup, the SDY tests the availability of COM Ports 1 through 4 in your system. The first available COM port is designated

    for SDY communications and is noted on the Configuration Screen. Your SDY

    communications cable must be connected to this port.

    To connect the SDY to a port other than the default described above, disconnect the transmitter, then change the default selection with the pull down menu. Next

    reconnect the SDY communications cable.

    3. When the Configuration File shown on the screen has been modified for your intended application, click the “Stop” button to stop measurement.

    Note: File names must follow the DOS convention.

    Eight-character maximum, all lower case, no suffix.

    The Configuration Program adds a suffix to the file name automatically.

    3. Use the Explorer-like interface to designate the location on the PC drive for the file to be saved.

    4. Click on “Save”5. Click “Yes” to save the named file to disk. The left side of the screen will now show the

    name of the file entered in Step 2 resident on disk.

    Using a Configuration File Already on DiskTo download or edit a previously saved Configuration File you can use the “File” button on the SDY Configuration Screen to bring up a file from your hard disk.

    To use a configuration file already on disk:

    1. From the Configuration Program Main Screen, click on the “File” button to bring up the File Management portion of the program.

    2. Use the Explorer-like file display to locate the file to be retrieved, and click on the file to highlight it.

    3. Click on the “Quit File” button. The Configuration Screen will change to show the parameters entered into the retrieved file. The parameters can now be edited and/or downloaded into the memory of a connected SDY.

    Saving the SDY Configuration File to DiskThis is an optional procedure. You do not have to save the file to disk in order to download the file into SDY memory. Use this procedure to save information on the configuration of your SDY for downloading into other SDY transmitters, or for record-keeping purposes, etc.

    To save the SDY configuration files to disk:

    1. Click on the “File” button. This brings up an Explorer-like window on the left area of the screen.

    2. Enter the file name that you wish to save in the “Selected File Name” box.

    This will cause the “Prog” button to become available. Click “Prog”, and the software will download the parameters on the PC into the nonvolatile memory of the connected SDY. Status of the downloading is shown in the upper left corner of the screen. When completed, the program beeps.

    Note: Changing the settings on the Configuration Screen does not change SDY parameters

    until the Configuration File is downloaded to SDY memory as described in Step 3 above.

    Any time the SDY settings are changed, the configuration date will change to reflect the

    date the new settings were entered.

    Printing Saved Configurations1. Click on the “File” button. This brings up an

    Explorer-like window on the left area of the screen.

    2. Navigate to the save file you want to print and click on it.

    3. Click on the “Print” button.

    Note: Printing saved configurations must be done

    when the Explorer-like file window is up.

    Loading a Configuration File From a Connected SDYTo edit or view a Configuration File in the nonvolatile memory of a connected unit, you can use the “Get Setup” function of the Configuration program.

    Note: Whenever a unit is correctly connected to your

    PC, the “SDY Status” section of the Configuration Screen will show the configuration data already

    stored in unit memory.

    To load a configuration file from a SDY, connect a powered SDY and click “Get Setup”. The editable fields of the SDY Configuration Screen will change to match the data shown in the “Status” portion of the screen.

    Setting Output DampingTo lessen the impact of your sensor’s step increases and decreases, you may want to set the damping time, which will cause the SDY to average out fluctuations over the set amount of time. Setting the damping time is simple; simply clickon the damping value bar under the “Output”portion of the screen (in the bottom-right corner),or click on the box to the right of the“Damping(sec)” area and type in a numberbetween 0 and 20.032. This number is the numberof seconds that the sensor’s value will beaveraged over.

    Trimming SDY OutputThe SDY has a function that allows precise controlover its output. Note that to activate this function, aunit must be connected in the setup to a currentmeter, as shown in Figure 2. To trim SDY output:

    1. Set all unit parameters on the SDY Configuration Screen as required for your intended application. Click “Stop” to stop measurement.

    2. Click “Out Trim”.

    3. Select and move the “Output Zero” or the “Output Full” slide bar to adjust the SDY output.

    Monitor the output with a calibrated current meter or with a voltmeter measuring the drop across a precision, 250 Ohm resistor (see Figure 2).

    4. When both zero and full scale have been adjusted to satisfaction, press “Quit Trim”, then “Prog” to program the SDY with the new trim values.

    Note: Changing the settings shown on the screen in

    “Trim” mode DOES NOT CHANGE THE UNIT’S OPERATING PARAMETERS, it only updates

    the screen. The settings are saved to nonvolatile memory by using the “Prog” function.

    The “SDY Status” area of theConfiguration Screen will reflect the newoutput settings being downloaded into unitmemory.

    Setting the Display The SDY has numerous settings for its display, all of which are controlled using the “Input Range and Setup Options” box. You can set the customizable display to display the input, output, or toggle between the two every two seconds. The display will even scale to display any type of engineering units you desire. Input, Output, and Toggle The pull-down menu shown below is used to adjust what the SDY displays. There are three settings: “Input”, which causes the SDY to display the input it is receiving, “Output”, which causes the SDY to display the 4-20mA output it is emitting, and “Toggle”, which causes the SDY to switch between displaying Input to Output every two seconds. To switch between these, simply click on the pull-down menu, select the appropriate function, and program the transmitter by clicking the “Prog” button.

    Figure 4. The pull-down menu lets you select what the SDY displays.

    Display Zero & Display Full The display zero and display full show what values will actually be displayed. If the pull-down menu in Figure 4 and the radio button on Figure 5 both have “Input” selected, then Display Zero will match Input Zero and Display Full will match Input Full.

    Figure 5. Use the Display radio button to switch from standard input display to a scaleable display of any engineering unit type.

    Scaling the SDY OutputTo scale the transmitter’s output, use the mouse to move the slider bars in the “Output” section of the Main Configuration screen. “Zero Scale Output” effects the zero output, and “Full Scale Output” effects full scale output.

    Note: The SDY Output Scaling function will not operate

    unless a SDY is connected in the calibration setup shown in Figure 2.

    Scaling the Display The SDY can scale its display. This feature is use-ful when you need to limit, expand, or manipulate the numbers the SDY displays. Doing this also gives you the option of changing the engineering units being displayed to any engineering unit type. Scaling the input display is a simple procedure. First, click “Scale” on the radio button in Figure 5.

    Note: If you have the pull-down menu in Figure 4 set to “Output”, the Display radio button will not be

    available.

    You can then enter values into the “Display Zero”, “Display Full”, and “Display EGU” boxes. When you have entered the appropriate values, program the SDY with the new information by clicking the “Prog” button.

    Creating a Custom Linearization TableThe SDY supports user-defined linearization of both voltage and current inputs. Up to 85 input/output points can be defined, and the user can also specify the format and engineering units of the output (viewable with the Configuration Program).

    This section explains how to create a Custom Linearization Table for downloading into SDY memory.

    The instructions assume that the Configuration Program has been loaded successfully. Moore Industries also suggests saving the initial settings resident in the transmitter before making any changes.

    To create a Custom Linearization Table:

    1. Attach the equipment listed in Table 1 as shown in Figure 2 and start the PC Configuration Program.

    Note: It IS NECESSARY to connect a unit to the PC in

    order to create a Custom Linearization Table.

    2. Use the pull-down menu to set “Linearization ON”.

    Figure 7. Linearization must be set to ON to create a custom table

    3. Click on the “CustTable” (Customize Linearization Table) button. This causes the Configuration Program to change its upper-right corner area to accommodate the table.

    4. Use the table fields to set values for input and output from the transmitter’s intended application. Use the Up, Down, Left, and Right arrow keys on the PC keyboard to move the cursor among the cells in the table.

    Trimming the InputUse this feature of the SDY to enhance the accuracy of the transmitter by precisely matching its actual input reading to its scaling of the either one or two input points. Trim the input by following the directions below:

    1. Connect the transmitter to your PC using the setup shown in Figure 2.

    2. Click the radio button labeled “Input Trim On”. 3. Click “Start”, then “InpTrim”.4. Select whether you will trim two points (upper

    and lower) or just one point by clicking on the appropriate radio button in the “Trim Pnts” section.

    5. In the “Trim Lower” and “Trim Upper” boxes, type in the sensor’s value that you are trimming.

    6. Attach an input source to the transmitter. Using a calibrated multimeter to determine the current, set the input source to match the “Trim Lower” value you have chosen. Click “Trim Lower” and wait for it to capture the value.

    7. Using a calibrated multimeter to determine the current, set the input source value to match the “Trim Upper” value you have chosen. Click “Trim Upper” and wait for it to capture the value.

    8. Click on the button labelled “QuiInTrim”, then the “Stop” button, and finally the “Prog” button to send the trim values to the transmitter.

    Figure 6. Trim Capture Box

    5. Use the “Restore” button to revert to the table stored in the SDY’s memory.

    Caution: Restoring the configuration file erases any values

    in the table, overwriting them with whatever is stored in the most recent file.

    6. Use the “EGU” field to set the Engineering units of the readout from the main window when connected to the Configuration Program.

    7. Set the “Output Format” field to the desired resolution using the pull-down menu.

    8. Enter the number of points to use to constitute the Linearization Table in the “Points” field.

    The Rules for Custom Linearization:

    • The difference between any consecutive values in the table (in either column) must be less than 50% of the entire configured range.

    • One “Output EGU” value per “Input mV” value only.

    • It is not necessary to use all 85 available points, but the first and last points in the curve always default to the 0% and 100% input scale (input range).

    • If you decide not to use all 85 points, you must change the number of points in the “Points” field to the number you wish to use.

    Note: Moore Industries suggests filling in the EGU

    (Engineering Units), then the number of points, and finally the values in the table.

    9. When the table is complete, click on the “QuitTabl” button and answer “Yes” to the following dialog (or something similar).

    Figure 8. Save File Dialog Box

    10. Click on the “Prog” (Program) button to

    download the linearization table settings into the transmitter memory.

    CAUTION: Any time a connected SDY is “programmed”

    by downloading a Configuration File into memory, ALL of the configuration parameters resident in the transmitter memory at the time of the

    download are OVERWRITTEN.

    This includes things like: tag name, calibration date, trim values, etc.

    Once a transmitter’s memory is “erased”

    in this fashion, the old operating parameters are unrecoverable, and will have to be

    regenerated from scratch if needed again.

    The HP housing is a self-contained unit ready for mounting in one of our durable enclosures, such as the explosion-proof BH or NEMA 4X-compliant D-BOX.

    Figure 11 shows the dimensions of the HP housing. The dimensions of the SDY enclosures are shown in Figures 9 and 10.

    Mounting and ConnectionsMoore Industries suggests installing the SDY by first mounting the unit in its intended application, then making the electrical connections to input, output, and power.

    Before any installation, make sure that the unit has been bench checked to ensure that it is configured and calibrated for its intended application. Mounting the SDY To mount the SDY, use 4.5mm (0.18 in) screws to connect the SDY and mounting plate to a connec-tion head or other housing. Electrical Connections for the SDY Figure 12 shows the hookups for the SDY. Feed the sensor wiring up through the center thru-hole (and typically, out a side port of the connection head).

    Recommended Ground Wiring PracticesMoore Industries recommends the following ground wiring practices:

    • Any Moore Industries product in a metal case or housing should be grounded.

    • The protective earth conductor must be connected to a system safety earth ground before making other connections.

    • All input signals to, and output signals from, Moore Industries’ products should be wired using a shielded, twisted pair wiring technique. Shields should be connected to an earth or safety ground.

    • For the best shielding, the shield should be run all the way from the signal source to the receiving device. (see Note below)

    • The maximum length of unshielded input and output signal wiring should be 2 inches.

    Note: Some of Moore Industries’ instruments can be

    classified as receivers (IPT 2, IPX 2, etc.) and some can be classified as transmitters (TRX, TRY, etc.) while some are both a receiver and a transmitter

    (SPA 2, HIM, etc). Hence, your shield ground connections should be appropriate for the type of signal line being shielded. The shield should

    be grounded at the receiver and not at the signal source.

    CE Conformity Installation of any Moore Industries’ products that carry the CE marking must adhere to the guidelines in the Recommended Ground Wiring Practices section in order to meet the EN 61326 requirements set forth in the applicable EMC directive.

    To return equipment to Moore Industries for repair, follow these four steps: 1. Call Moore Industries and request a Returned Material Authorization (RMA) number. Warranty Repair – If you are unsure if your unit is still under warranty, we can use the unit’s serial number to verify the warranty status for you over the phone. Be sure to include the RMA number on all documentation. Non-Warranty Repair – If your unit is out of warranty, be prepared to give us a Purchase Order number when you call. In most cases, we will be able to quote you the repair costs at that time. The repair price you are quoted will be a “Not To Exceed” price, which means that the actual repair costs may be less than the quote. Be sure to include the RMA number on all documentation.

    2. Provide us with the following documentation: a) A note listing the symptoms that indicate the unit needs repair b) Complete shipping information for return of the equipment after repair c) The name and phone number of the person to contact if questions arise at the factory

    3. Use sufficient packing material and carefully pack the equipment in a sturdy shipping con-tainer.

    4. Ship the equipment to the Moore Industries location nearest you. The returned equipment will be inspected and tested at the factory.
